Hello
I can first of all I can run my cpu @ 700Mhz (default) with my TNT2 overclocked from (core 150 - 170) and (memory 183 - 200) stable, but when I knock my CPU up to 800 i have to run my TNT2 at 133 memory and core. This is really weird, but a simple thing can probably fix it. N e help?

That sure sounds like a system instability from a power draw problem to me. Do you have a good PS?

Do you change your FSB when going from 700 to 800 MHz ?
The slight overclock of the AGP/PCI might be causing the problems.

Yea, that is what I was thinking, but how does everyone one else manage?
Sigh. And yes my P/S is crap, do you think that is the problem?
